iphone screen is too damn small for this... dammit apple... :mad::mad:
Yeah, they shouldn't have forced you to buy it! Seriously, those jerks!
Excellent! Now when can we get USB to instrument support? An iPad or iPhone would be ideal to plug into a MIDI piano.
CoreMIDI support was added in 4.2. You use the Camera Connection Kit to connect USB instruments and interfaces.
Okay so if I download Grageband for the iPhone4S and then buy an iPad will the same app work for both?
Key word - Universal

I'm really trying to understand why this bothers you so much. Apple didn't push it to your phone.
on Topic: no signs of Garageband for iPhone in UK Store
Her gimmick sells and I don't care for it but she does play the piano and songwrite
Cant imagine too many people will use this.
Well, you can imagine me using it.:D

Add a piano roll for edits.
Add a real mixing board.
Add the ability to punch in/out--we don't ALL use built in instruments.
Then it'd be awesome.
I think it's already awesome (especially considering the absurd pricing) but these enhancements would make it perfect! Especially the ability to edit small mistakes would be wonderful.
